Here i have some Lines extracted from DWG and thought i set them to the correct projection. all seem right except for one file that is way off "Asbuilt - Sewer Existing" I noticed that the autocad_origion x,y are the correct extents but the geometry have different xy coordinates. any ideas on how to set this correctly would be appreciated. Many Thanks!

@pearly1​ Good Morning,

 

Info:

"Ignore User Coordinate System (UCS)Instructs FME to ignore the user-defined coordinate system of the file being read. By default, FME applies the UCS when reading the coordinate data.

Usual AutoCAD-to-AutoCAD translation setting: Always selected"

 

you find this in your Autocad reader settings in the Navigator Window.

  • AutoCAD Reader:
    • Parameters
      • Advanced
        • Ignore User Coordinate System (UCS): Standard is Set to No

 

2.) Try to set the "Insunits" to 0 in autocad (console)

3.) Try to save the dwg to dwg2000 and try again

4.) clean the dwg file for error
